Most clubs have been hammered by covid financially , some like Spurs to the point of desperation.People keep forgetting the state of Spurs especially after COVID, Levy practically did a we're fucked interview post season to put it out there.
Same for Villa, can be as rich as they want, but getting 80m for a single player would allow them to keep growing their project and reinvest, in COVID circumstances most clubs would be appealed by our interest
Never heard or seen Cheshire Blue.We have Cheshire Coloured (Yellow) but all the rest are not what we would call "Cheshires Finest" as we`ve probably done a Rag and nicked a name. ;)
In Bernardo's case it wouldn't surprise me if Mendes cooks up some shady deal to get it done, he's been doing it for years after all. With Jesus it could be tricky, can't see Juve giving us a straightforward deal, Serie A is in dire straitsMost clubs have been hammered by covid financially , some like Spurs to the point of desperation.
It will be interesting to see if Bernardo gets the move he allegedly wants, I am sure in normal times there would be a que of clubs wanting him, but this summer who has the cash to buy him?
£100 m is not coming exclusively from those who haven't played for us. It will come from those who have. I don't know whether that figure has Sane sale amount or not.
Sancho Nmecha Harrison Porro? And probably a big name exit will happen to cover that 100m
Bernardo's only chance seems to be Atletico, love to see a deal with Felix, but only a swop no cash.In Bernardo's case it wouldn't surprise me if Mendes cooks up some shady deal to get it done, he's been doing it for years after all.

Loan fees for Roberts?, Tikix is a genius.You've missed £18m for Angelino.
Fag packet adding...we're already at close to £100m in sales and loans before potential Herrera sale. Throw in one high-profile sale and looking easily at raising £150m plus.
Sane - £44m
Angelino - £18m
Harrison - £11m
Sancho - £11m
Nmecha - £11m
Ilic - £1m loan
Herrera - £20m (West Ham possibility)
Porro - £1m loan
There is also a 25 per cent sell on for Tosin (linked with Arsenal)
Additional loan fees for Roberts, other kids, etc.

Don't forget that Txiki bought a Euromillions ticket last night... We could be quids in by tomorrow!You've missed £18m for Angelino.

Loan + obligation doesn't sound too bad yeah, considering we're probably not that desperate for cash.If he is going, I'd be happy to loan Jesus to Juventus, I think he'd be brilliant there and be worth 2x as much on the market after a good loan as he is now. Plus there'll be more people interested.
Think we need to remember the accounting year-end is 30 June so any signings/sales now are in the 30 June 2022 (next season's) accounts, which will have fans back etc. so we're not having to worry about offsetting the 30 June 2020 loss anymore, that will have been accounted for in the accounting year just gone with a CL final run, league title win etc.Loan fees for Roberts?, Tikix is a genius.
Not doubting your figures, but we took a 120m hit last season, won't the Sane money be used to show profit this last season?
We have also spent money on the South American kids, not massive amounts but not insignificant either.
Just hope he bought the ticket using a company account, otherwise we can’t invest any winnings!Don't forget that Txiki bought a Euromillions ticket last night... We could be quids in by tomorrow!
The point is we lost 120m, we need to turn that around to avoid issues after covid with FFP.Think we need to remember the accounting year-end is 30 June so any signings/sales now are in the 30 June 2022 (next season's) accounts, which will have fans back etc. so we're not having to worry about offsetting the 30 June 2020 loss anymore, that will have been accounted for in the accounting year just gone with a CL final run, league title win etc.
Defeating the entire benefit of loaning him outLoan + obligation doesn't sound too bad yeah, considering we're probably not that desperate for cash.
I have no doubts Jesus will thrive in Serie A

They would have won it without him IMHO. Only goal difference between us the year before and we imploded as Bobby lost the dressing room.Van Persie 2012/13 says hi.

Maybe Bernardo can't find a move. Especially after Atletico moved for GriezmannI think the British media have conditioned us to think that these are mission impossible deals. They're not. They're commercial transactions, and regardless of the Levy LoveFest at the Athletic and down in London, there will be a commercial tipping point for him where he'll simply have to sell. In my opinion of course. I also think that were this deal dead, were it simply a case of him not being for sale, we would know that and City would've moved on.
On Grealish, contrary to what Sam has written, I was told a couple of days ago City have got cold feet. Lets see what transpires as it could all be about money, and people positioning themselves. Maybe Grealish is asking for KDB money and City have decided to pull back a little, and maybe his camp's reaction to that is to begin to leak that he'll sign a new deal at Villa.
wow thanks for thatAny transfer is amortised over the period of the contract and so say we spend £200m on players giving them 5 year contracts that's £40m per year. Transfer fees in are accounted for in full in the current year and so rough calculation £150m in, £40m in amortised fees out gives us a £110m book profit.
The point is we lost 120m, we need to turn that around to avoid issues after covid with FFP.
The loss was due to the accounting period change/tv deal and champions league pay out delay, but even with those we would not have made a big profit.
We still have to be careful , no guarantee stadiums will be full or the pandemic is over.
